BLOWING ROCK — The Blowing Rock town council unanimously approved a street right-of-way maintenance strategy at its regular meeting on March 12. The strategy will enforce the town code, which requires residents to clear any vegetative obstructions near roads. The council agreed to leave the time frame for removing the obstructions open-ended, but it was suggested that the town give residents 45 to 60 days to remove the obstructions, and then the town will remove them. kAmx?E6C:> %@H? |2?286C z6G:?
